Lindsay Lohan refused Hangover role The Mean Girls star was offered the role played by Heather Graham

Actress Lindsay Lohan was initially offered the role played by Heather Graham in hit film The Hangover.

According to Usmagazine.com, the Mean Girls star was offered the role of Jade, a stripper played by Graham in the blockbuster film by Todd Phillips, but turned it down insisting that the screenplay "had no potential".

A source said that "Lohan's agent tried hard to get Phillips to consider her, but Lindsay said she didn't like the script," reports the New York Post.

However, Lohan's representative was not available for comment. Meanwhile, Lohan has once again landed herself in trouble with the law, with a chemist accusing her of stealing her tanning spray formula.

Jennifer Sunday, a St. Petersburg, Fla., chemist, filed the lawsuit in Tampa, Fla. Federal court against Lohan and Lorit Simon, a Las Vegas businesswoman who air-brush tans celebrities.
